Summary

Laparoscopic incisional hernia repair shows more intraoperative complications but fewer surgical site infections than open surgery. Recurrence rates were similar, but longer follow-up is needed for definitive conclusions on incisional hernia treatment.

Area of Science:

  • General Surgery
  • Minimally Invasive Surgery
  • Hernia Repair

Background:

  • Incisional hernia repair outcomes are debated, particularly comparing laparoscopic and open techniques.
  • Laparoscopic surgery offers potential benefits but its routine use for incisional hernias is controversial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare outcomes of laparoscopic versus open incisional hernia repair.
  • To assess the advantages and limitations of each surgical approach.

Main Methods:

  • Meta-analysis of six randomized controlled trials (RCTs) identified from PubMed and Scopus (January 2006 - April 2022).
  • Data synthesis focused on intraoperative complications, surgical site infections, hematoma/seroma, hospital stay, operation time, time to oral intake, and recurrence rates.

Main Results:

  • Laparoscopic repair had a higher incidence of intraoperative complications (RR 0.18).
  • Open surgery showed a significantly greater risk of surgical site infections (RR 4.47).
  • Hematoma and seroma rates were similar; hospital stay was longer with open surgery. Recurrence rates were comparable, but follow-up was short.

Conclusions:

  • Laparoscopic incisional hernia repair may reduce postoperative complications like surgical site infections.
  • Open surgery is associated with more intraoperative complications.
  • Further research with extended follow-up is necessary to fully evaluate long-term outcomes and recurrence rates for both laparoscopic and open incisional hernia repair.
